HR Translation Made Simple
In today’s global, digital, and employee-centric world of business, the efficiency and effectiveness of your organisation’s HR has never been more important.
HR translation services like ours help organisations across all sectors to find, nurture, and communicate with non-native employees in their own language, both in the UK and internationally.
The Role of HR Translation
Though English is the default language of international business, it likely isn’t the first language of your international teams, and even some members of your UK team.
Human resources translation enables your organisation to:
- Communicate with non-native speaking talent and international teams in their native language.
- Advertise role vacancies and provide employee training in the international territories you trade in.
- Promote inclusion by enabling non-native speaking team members to access information and communications in their native language.
- Uphold the rights of employees to access important policies and information.
- Ensure your HR documentation is clearly communicated and easily understood by all.
- Emphasise that organisation cares and values all employees
By working with a trusted LSP such as Andiamo, you can rest assured that your content messaging is accurate, precise, and consistent across the different translations.
Making HR Documentation Accessible to All
HR translation services help to make the following examples of HR documentation accessible to all employees, stakeholders and beyond, in their native language.
- Contracts
- Recruitment ads and job descriptions
- Training information and training video subtitles
- Workplace safety information
- Health and safety information
- Employee handbooks
- Business policies and best practice information
- Overseas DBS equivalent letters
Make HR Translation an Extension of Your HR Department
Beyond facilitating communication, promoting inclusion and supporting organisational compliance and employee rights, HR Translation services like ours also help to support your wider HR efforts.
Talent Selection, Management & Retention: Human resources translation helps you to broaden your talent pool by enabling you to target international employees to work in your UK operations. It can also help to widen your pool of talent in the international territories you trade in, by translating job advertisements and descriptions.
Having your materials translated also supports employee retention, as it proves that your organisation recognises them, their language, culture, and the value they bring. This boosts employee satisfaction, trust, and loyalty.
Boosting Productivity With More Effective Onboarding: HR Translation can also transform the effectiveness of how you onboard members of your international teams, and non-native speaking talent in the UK.
Translating your onboarding content into your prospective employees’ native language can increase understanding of the content and help your team to more powerfully understand and align themselves with your organisational culture and the requirements of their role.
L&D and eLearning, Software & Apps: Services like ours enable you to provide critical, sometimes highly technical, training documentation, in your talents’ native language. Foreign language subtitling also improves engagement in and understanding of your video, software and app content, helping to boost retention of information, operational excellence, minimise accidents, and more.
Health and Safety Content & Compliance: HR Translation can also support your organisational compliance and safeguard your organisation by ensuring that your health and safety and compliance content is accessible and easily understood by both international teams and non-native English speaking team members.
The Role of HR Interpreting
Consecutive and simultaneous interpreting services also play a key part in supporting non-native speaking talent in the UK and abroad, in performance review meetings, disciplinaries, and in-person training sessions.
